Policy Description

Advantages

Disadvantages

Full to Full

There will be a full tank of gas when you get your vehicle. Use as much petrol as you want and top it off when you return your car at the rental dealer. As long as you replace the fuel before returning the car, you won't face any extra fees

You only refill the amount of fuel that you've used. Used a quarter of a tank? Simply fill it back up to full. You won't need to pay for any fuel you didn't use. You can shop around for the cheapest prices and you'll only pay service fees if you don't refill the tank

Full to empty (pre-paid)

You'll get the car with a full tank and return the car with the tank empty. Ask the provider to see if they'll refund you for any unused fuel

You won't need to find a gas station near your rental drop-off location

You might pay more for the tank than you would filling up at a local gas station

Empty to empty

You may not have a full tank when you pick up your vehicle, and you won't have to refill the gas before you bring the car back

You fill the tank yourself, so you can shop around for the cheapest local prices

You'll have to fill up before you do any serious driving

What fuel policy do you recommend?

Many suppliers offer a range of fuel policies. However, the stand-out choice is usually full-to-full. It simply means returning the car with the same level of gas as you got it with, so you'll never pay for anyone else's road trips through the Lynchburg.
